Klaverjas

Very popular in the Netherlands is the game of Klaverjas. This is a trick-taking game which uses the 32-card deck and is played by four players in partnerships. Points are scored during the game by taking tricks containing valuable cards. It is also possible to score bonus points for tricks containing particular combinations of cards.

Klaverjas is organised by the Nederlandse Klaverjas Unie, which organises national championships. This Klaverjas site has more information about the game, including a tournament calendar and software. There is a nice Windows freeware Klaverjas program by F. H. Reincke which you can download from this site.
